[D8915AAO], Letter from John Edison (Cousin) to Thomas Alva Edison, April 16th, 1889

Editor's Notes

It pains me very much to ask for further aid from you after you have been so kind and generous during my afflictions. My health is improving moderately and my doctors say I will get better but never very strong. I am able to walk around some and hope by God's help to still [---]/improve?. My case is a puzzling one to the doctors they never saw a person live as long with an [---] as I have, they said I could not live when I was first taken 4 years ago but I have come to the conclusion they don't know in all cases. TAE if you can help me a little more I would like to buy a cow, it would be so nice to have milk and make our own butter. I will not impose on you further and if I [---] regain my health I shall certainly repay you. May God bless you and yours.
